   I don't like it when devlogs or project updates start with "hi everyone". You're not talking to a group of people, for the most part. A ghost of you is talking to one person at a time on their phone. It's like writing a letter. Making it plural creates a weird nonspecific distancing effect.

     @jovialthunder starting every devlog with "My friend, I hope this letter finds you well"

     @jovialthunder Better or worse that the Wikimedia subject line "Annika, you've always been the key"?

     @annika oooo that's pretty bad. Dripping with insincerity and sure to be followed up with something they want from you.
